The Arizona Cardinals are set to face off against the Seattle Seahawks in NFL Week 17 action. What five bold predictions can be made for the game and what should fans be on the lookout for throughout the game?
1. Carson Palmer Has a Huge Game Against a Strong Seattle Secondary
There is a chance that Carson Palmer will not finish the game if the Carolina Panthers are obviously going to lock up the NFC. That being said, Palmer is going to have a big game against Seattle's strong secondary for as long as he is in the game. Palmer has been one of the top quarterbacks in the league all year long and he will show why once again this week.
2. Russell Wilson Shows Off His Skill-Set to Match Palmer
While Palmer may be talked about more as a top quarterback, Russell Wilson is going to match the Cardinals' quarterback. Wilson has exploded during the second half of the season and has been putting up game after game of big production. Seattle will see their quarterback show off his full skill-set and will give his team a chance to pull out a big win.
3. Larry Fitzgerald Racks Up at Least 100 Yards and Two Touchdowns
After some struggles and speculation that age was catching up with him, Larry Fitzgerald has been absolutely dominant this year for the Cardinals. He isn't quite as dynamic as he once was, but he is still a consistent and dangerous threat. Fitzgerald will rack up at least 100 yards and two touchdowns against the Seahawks this afternoon.
4. Doug Baldwin Continues the Tear He Has Been On
Seattle wide receiver Doug Baldwin has been playing like a superstar the second half of the season and that will continue today. Arizona has one of the best defenses in the league, but Baldwin will still find ways to come up with a big game. He is Wilson's favorite target and that will show this afternoon.
5. Arizona Pulls Off a Close Win to Finish the Year at 14-2
Assuming the Cardinals' starters stay in the game, they are going to pull out a big win. Seattle is an excellent football team, but the Cardinals are better. They will finish the season at 14-2 with the win, while the Seahawks will finish their 2015 season with a 9-7 record following the loss.
